The Department currently has no plans to amend the Commons Act 2006 or related legislation.
A requirement for formal public consultation on proposals to carry out works on common land is already in place. Under section 38 of the Commons Act 2006, consent is required for any works that would impede access or alter the character of common land. Applicants are expected to consult interested parties—including landowners, commoners, parish and district councils, Natural England, and the Open Spaces Society—and to publish notices both locally and on site. The requirement to provide equivalent exchange land when common land is deregistered is also well established. Section 16 of the Commons Act 2006 requires applicants to offer suitable exchange land where the deregistered area exceeds 200 square metres.
We have no plans to review the restrictions introduced by section 16 of the Growth and Infrastructure Act 2013.
Further information on carrying out works on common land is available here on GOV.UK: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/carrying-out-works-on-common-land.

Applications can already be made to register commons which were mistakenly omitted from the register in nine authority areas under the Commons Act Schedule 2 paragraphs 2-4. Together these nine authorities cover over 70% of registered commons and greens in England. In addition, where commons were omitted as a result of a mistake made by a commons registration authority, applications under section 19 of the Commons Act 2006 can be made anywhere in England.
